THE SHAKESPEARE DEBATE.

The Shakespeare question is again un-
der debate in the magazines and reviews,
and the Baconian theorists are out in
force, for the claim that Bacon wrote the
plays, and that Shakespeare-as i writer
was myth. The latest advocate of the
Bacon theory of authorship is Ignatius
Donelly, whose Atlantis a few years
ago brought him prominently before the
literary and scientific world. The weak
point in Mr.. Donelly's argument is the as
sumption that only one well yersed in the
Ia could have written of the law as did
the author of Shakespeare's plays. Itdoes
not follow. The law is by no means a
sealed book now, nor was it in the time of
Shakespeare Men who were observ-
ant, or who had purpose in ascertaining,
had no more difficulty then than laymen
have now in assuring themselves as to legal
points. If the author of Shakespeare's
plays "must have been lawyer" SO, too
he must have been physician, q courtier.
4 priest, a soldier. surgeon, diplomat.
The truth is, that not all Shakespeare's
law " was perfect Interpretation. 1t is
also true such reference as is made TO law
in the plays is of the character that any
playwright might make who had specially
informed himself FOR the purposes of his
play. But it was in its dramatic applica-
ton that the genius of Shakespeare as

you for have you not builded for us a city
and established for us the foundations of
commerce? We have grown and pros
pered by your side, and it is now necessary
to cur greed that you yield place and be
absorbed in us"
The district societies, however, are show
ing splendid spirit in this matter, and the
people of the interior are fully aroused
upon the subject. They are refusing to be
parties to the scheme of the San Francisco
sponge, and the result will be in San
joaquin, Nevada, Sonoma, Yuba, Ell Dor
ado, Santa Clara and all the other districts
the most successful exhibitions in 1887
ever held in the districts, while the State
Agricultural Society is already assured OF
such a large and representative exposition
as will constitute a verdict of condemns
ton by the people upon the effort to crush
out the District and State Fairs in the in
terests Of the shopkeepers and landlords OF
San Francisco and the pockets Of the show
syndicate.

OF the twenty-three nihilists secretly tried at
st. Petersburg recently for conspiracy, etc.,
guilty, of whom fifteen, two of them being
women. were sentenced to death. The SEN
fences have all been committed, either to exile
in Siberia or to imprisonment for life at hard
labor-an exercise of magnanimity by which
loyal Russia will, of course, be profoundly I'M
pressed.
But the mercy" would have been most
richly poured out by ordering the execu-
ton of these wretched victims To Siberia
for life and imprisonment at hard labor,
means the damp and foulness and depth
and misery of the mines; the knout, the
ball and chain, the scourge, the blow of
the sword-hilt, starvation, misery and life
long pain and suffering and brokenness of
spirit. The autocrat of all the Russias
knew that he was inflicting the cruelest of
punishments when, posing as the merciful
savior of the convicted from the gallows
and the rife, he committed their sentences.
Loyal Russia may be deceived, but dis
halls, scientific cloistcrs, aristocratic man
sions, the hut of the peasant, the boudoir of
the Princes, the household of the Gar the
sanctuary of the church, the barracks, the
field, the shop-disloyal Russia will store
up against the intolerable system of per-
sonal rule, by grace of God and holy oil,
these "mercies against fearful day of

OREGON DISGRACED.

when the tragic news was told, the
town was ablaze with excitement, but the
unanimous verdict was that this was fine
ending to this dreadful affair"
Such is the closing comment of a dis
patch from Dallas by way of Salem, of the
lynching in the former place, in Polk
county, Oregon, of o. NJ. Kelly, the wife
murderer. If it was the unanimous YER
dict of the people it proves that there
were no men in Dallas whose respect for
the law rises superior to their instincts of
revenge The killing of his wife was a
brutal, unprovoked and dastardly crime by
Kelly. He was certain to have suffered
the extreme penalty of the law at its
hands for he had no defense, and could
have made no showing likely to have saved
him from the full penalty of his crime.
He was well guarded, and there was no
likelihood Of his escaping from the law Of
ficers. When an otherwise orderly COM
munity, therefore, substitutes violence for
the law it confesses to its own shame.
There have been cases where the probable
escape of the guilty, the perversion of law
and the corruption of its administrators
have given quasi.iustifcation, in moral
sense, to the uprising OF the people to ap-
ply penalties. But the danger of these
extrajudicial jugments are apparent.
Every lynching weakens respect for the
law, and encourages a spirit of insubordi-
nation that is more likely to do wrong
than good. That Kelly was dragged from
Jail and hanged by men who claim to be
good citizens, is reflection upon all citi-
zenship in that community, and it owes it
to the State and to society at large to bring
the perpetrators of the outrage to the bar
of the law. We have no faith that this
will be done. Lynchers are seldom pun
ished, and it is unlikely that they will be
in this case But until they are, Oregon
must bear the stigma attaching to all over
throw, however temporary, of the power
of the law.

serted itself above all others Only
master gifted by nature to highest skill
could so well handle subjects, or so fathom
the springs of human motive As matter
of fact lawyers never have made great
dramatists, and only here and there has
one so far got away from the
rightly Of his profession as to write
really good acting play. So, too, of
highly cultured men as a rule; they
have not been eminently successful as au-
thors of dramatic works that fit into the
grooves Of acting plays. The few who
have been are to be numbered upon the
fingers, though hundreds have produced
dramatic reading works that are foremost
in literature. Shakespeare's plays were
| written by man familiar with the work
ing stage, rude as it was in his day. Even
such of the reading dramatists as were
great were men of the world as well as
men of letters. Very much is made of the
claim that if William Shakespeare wrote
the plays he must have been a classical
scholar. But this proceeds upon the
assumption that it is disclosed by the plays
that there was familiarity by the author
with the classics. The best scholars agree
that this is not shown by the plays. The
introduction of such phrases as would
seem to indicate the classical knowledge of
the author, are of the kind any one could
procure inserted, or are familiar quotations
in which Shakespeare may himself have
coached for the purposes of his plays.
Certainly the author Of Shakespeare plays
was deplorably deficient in geographical
knowledge, and this would tend to credit
the Shakespearean claim, while it is GER
tainly unanswerable by the Baconians.

n the return of the silversmiths of
New York to work the Knights of Labor
suffered heavy defeat. Yet the more
thoughtful members do not regret it. They
see now that the action of ordering out in
that case was wholly indefensible. In the
shoe strike at Worcester, Mass, the
Knights have met greater defeat. The
places of the strikers have all been filled,
and the thousands of operatives will need
employment soon, and many are suffering
already for the necesSaries of life. The
Knights need to do now as certain trades
union men did in Chicago. They went to
work in other vocations, no matter whether
skilled or not, and being aided by their
Unions are, seven out Of ten, getting bet
ter wages than before. Not that the strike
is to be thus justified, but let the Knights
develop the resources of workers to care
for themselves.

ENGLAND has once more begun to ask itself
If Canada is really any value to the British En-
plre. This question has often been propounded
in the twenty years which have passed since
the dominion Confederation was founded. The
day is not very far in the future when Great
Britain will not interpose any formidable OBJ
jectioDs TO separation on the part of Canada,
even il that separation should involve a politi-
cal union with the United States.
No matter how England answers her
question, the United States Government
does not want Canada. Our country is
large enough for our ability at present.
Canada as an independent nation would
benefit us more than as part and parcel
of our Union. To absorb Canada would
mean the introduction into our political
system of strange elements unused to our
theories and practices, and which would
for generations prove sources of confusion
and trouble. OF course in time the pro-
cess of equalization would establish desired
equilibrium, but it would be long time
and not visit upon us any compromising
benefit.

in expectation of profit to America as a
result, mistake. 1t would bring us no
